Eligibility

Jennifer Robinson Memorial Scholarship, with an application deadline in January, offers one award in the amount of $5000.

Description

The Jennifer Robinson Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to a student enrolled at a Canadian university, studying Northern biology. Northern is defined as locations that lie north of the southern limit of the discontinuous permafrost zone. The Scholarship Committee is looking for students with qualities of scholarship that the late Jennifer Robinson brought to her studies at the Institute's Kluane Lake Research Station, evidence of Northern relevance, and commitment to field-oriented research. Applicants must submit a Cover Letter, which also includes an email address where the applicant can be contacted; and a brief description of the proposed research, including a clear hypothesis, relevance, title and statement of the purpose of the research, the area and type of study, the methodology and plan for evaluation of findings. Any collaborative relationship or work should be briefly identified. Three reference letters are also required. A list of current sources and amounts of research funding, including scholarships, grants and bursaries must also be submitted. The supporting documentation must be submitted as individual attachments, not a zipped file. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Arctic Institute of North America for more information.
